It may be just me, but I think that car should have been built with the g35 rearend and not those aweful Bob the Builder triangle taillights that make me wanna stab myself...

I like the 350z tails, the G35s are nice as well. It certainly wasn't a turn off for me to not buy the car.

Dallis wait till I let you get behind the wheel of this machine and you drive it, I cant even describe driving it. It's so awesome. It may not be the fastest car in the world or have the nicest butt of a car, but god damn it handles like no other, the sound of the engine and the exhaust plus the way the interior it all mesh's so well. Meet me on saturday if you want, i'll be way up north in your neck of the woods installing my stereo ****, you gotta take it for a quick spin.

Thanks for the comments guys! Next exterior mod is possibly the 06 LED tailights (Dallis) and a spoiler to clean up the ***. That is the one thing I hate is not having a lip or spoiler on back of these. Other then fixing some rock chips on the hood, the exterior of the car is flawless.

I agree on the wing, only I hate half of them. This is the only one I like:


Now THIS to me is cool. 2 tone it and the wheels are now 20's...

That looks nice, i do like the two tone look as well man, great choice.

I almost went with a set of 20's on here

But they are heavy and slow the car down. 19's are good enough. These are a good starter wheel, i'll probably get new rims after i wear the tires down. I pretty much got the wheels for free and just paid for tires it seems like.

I'm starting to make mad cash at my job now finally, I should make over 10k this month if I hit goal. There are a ton of end of quarter spiffs going on, so I make sure to sell the right product so I get extra spiffs n stuff. There was a little over $5,000 in $100.00 bills sitting in front of that wheel up above Because of this next check i'm really debating a pro-charger or APS twin turbo setup for the Z. I can get the procharger installed for $6,000 out the door from one of the az350z vendors. Thats dyno tuned and everything. But thats if I want to deal with the hastle of boost or not. We'll see, I got many options, but the biggest thing on my mind is getting all this stereo stuff installed in the Z this weekend, I miss my bump.
